Age of Conan Hyborian Adventures Game Director Craig 'Silirrion' Morrison was recently interviewed by IGN's Vault Network. Some of the community may remember that Craig 'Silirrion' Morrison was once a Managing Editor for the Vault Network before he took up his position with Funcom. In the Interview Craig 'Silirrion' Morrison talks about what it takes to be AoC Game Director, how he deals with the community, and he even offers some advice to those looking to break into the Gaming industry.

AoC Vault: Do you have any tips for people currently working on Vault sites, whom would like to some day work directly for a game developer, such as yourself?



Craig Morrison: Work hard and always be willing to put in the time I think is the main advice, and never look to do it ‘for yourself’. To me it was always about the community and facilitating a better community rather than building my own ‘reputation’. You find that by engaging with the community the rest actually comes along with it, and you tend to end up with a better reputation if people like and respect your approach. Always remember that you are working as part of a much larger community who are giving up their own free time to contribute to something they have a passion for.
